I had the opportunity to interview an E.M.T. The E.M.T. I
chose to interview was my friend Matt from the Highland
lakes squad. I chose to interview him because it is easier for
me to talk to someone I know than someone I dont know,
and also I wanted to find out whats its like being an E.M.T.
from a teenagers point of view. Q: Why did you become an
E.M.T.? A: I enjoy helping people, and I felt that I wanted
to be able to do more than just basic first aid and cpr. Q:
What does it mean to be on call? A: It means that if the
pager goes off you are the person that responds to the call.
You cant leave your area because you have to stay available

your personal life? A: It doesnt really affect my personal life
too much. The only time it really does is if the pager goes off
and Im on call then I have to stop what I am doin and
respond to the call, or if I come across an accadent I have to
stop and help. Q: In Vernon what kind of accadents do you
usually see? A: The most common type of accadent I see is
people havin trouble breathing, or people who cant breath
things like that. Q: What is the worst accadent youve ever
seen? A: The worst accadent Ive ever seen was a car

again he couldnt remember what I told him. Q: What
happens if the victim is someone you know? A: I try to treat
the victim like any other victim, but Im more nervious about
messing up somthing or doing somthin wrong. The victim
though will usually feel more comfortable when someone
they know is there with them. Q: What do you do at the
scene of an accadent? A: We treat the victims, and transport
them to the hospital as fast as we can. Q: How do you feel
